Corn And Zucchini Fritters

Serves: 6 people

Recipe Ingredients

1 1/2 cups  Corn kernels - (abt 3 ears)
1/2 cup  Red onion - thinly sliced (small)
1 cup  Loosely-packed parsley sprigs
3 cups  Zucchini - cut into 3/4" fine (small)
  Julienne
1/2 cup  All-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon  Salt
1/4 teaspoon  Freshly-ground black pepper
3 tablespoons  Sparkling soda water
  Vegetable oil - for deep frying

Recipe Instructions

In a large bowl, combine the corn, onion, parsley, and zucchini and toss to mix. Add the flour and toss with your hands, separating all the ingredients to be sure they are all coated evenly with the flour. Add the salt, pepper, and sparkling water and mix all together. The mixture should be airy and light, but not wet; do not overmix.

In a large heavy saucepan or deepfryer, heat about 4 inches of vegetable oil to 375 degrees. Gather the batter into loose, very freeform fritters about 3 inches in diameter (when you gather them together, compact just slightly to hold in a mass, but there will still be lots of stray bits of vegetable sticking out and some will fall off and separate from the main clump). Fry them, 2 at a time, until they are golden-brown, about 3 to 4 minutes, turning over halfway through. Stand back and watch out for splattering oil for the first minute or two. With a skimmer or kitchen tongs, gently remove them to paper towels, drain and keep warm in a low oven while you finish cooking the other fritters.

This recipe yields 6 servings.
